One man come in the name of love One man come and go One man come, he to justify One man to overthrow
In the name of love What more in the name of love. In the name of love What more in the name of love.
One man caught on a barbed wire fence One man he resist One man washed on an empty beach. One man betrayed with a kiss
In the name of love What more in the name of love. In the name of love What more in the name of love.
(nobody like you...)
Early morning, April 4 Shot rings out in the Memphis sky Free at last, they took your life They could not take your pride
In the name of love What more in the name of love. In the name of love What more in the name of love...
When he says One man, what man is he talking about?
-When he says One man throughout the whole song he is talking about a lot of different men.
Who got caught on a barbed wire fence?
-When he talks about the one man caught on the barbed wire fence, he is talking about soldiers in WWI.
-In this stanza he lyrics talk about Martin Luther King Jr., and when he died early morning April 4th, in Memphis Tennessee. And now the United States is free, because of his beliefs and death.
-Throughout the whole song when the lyrics say “In the name of love, What more in the name of love.” U2’s lyrics are stating how all these people in this song gave everything just for the love of this country.
This song was written in 1984 and is mainly about leaders in our country that changed our country for the better when sacrificed their lives by speaking up in what they believed in and changed our United States of America significantly.
I know that because the lyrics pretty much explain the song. But in this song you need to read between the lines and know a lot of background knowledge on whom he is referring to throughout the song.
Some background information on some of the lyrics in the song: - In this song U2 refers to Martin Luther King Jr. It mentions April 4th, the day that King was assassinated. It also mentions Memphis. King was assassinated on the balcony of his room in the Lorraine Motel at 6:01 on April 4, 1968 in Memphis, Tn. - "One man betrayed with a kiss." That's a reference to Jesus Christ.
I listened to 3 songs today in class, THOSE SONGS WERE: 1.) Empty garden by Elton john 2.) Fall on me by R.E.M 3.) Born in the USA by Bruce Springsteen
